How can massage help your
yoga practice?
Everything in the body is wrapped in fascia, tough and fibrous
connective tissue that wraps around muscles, bones, organs, nerves,
blood vessels, and even individual cells! Long held postures,
injury, or emotions can cause fascia to tighten, resulting in muscle
constriction. Massage lengthens and softens the fascia, allowing for
greater flexibility and awareness in your yoga practice. When you
become aware of muscle tension in your body, you can learn to awaken
any muscle groups that you haven't been using and access them while
on the mat.
